Yeah, it's those same Beatles songs you've heard a million times - but it's toys! None of this has anything to do with Charlie Brown & Co., near as I can tell. Just a marketing angle, I guess. The cats behind this are French-Candian composers who have actually done some fairly serious classical-type stuff. Tho this is probably just a commercial "rent gig" to pay the bills, it can work nicely, e.g.: "Here Comes The Sun"s arrangement for toy piano, xylophone, and chimes, among other sounds.

I've got an older CD by these guys, sans any cartoon character references. It's got lots of Classical staples on it, Ravel, Beethoven, etc., all done on toy instruments.
The album closes with the Beatles When I'm Sixty-Four, oddly enough.
They broke up when Charlie Brown left to collaborate with the little red-haired girl.

Thank you, it's interesting how Beatles songs are good on whatever instruments they're being played on.
